State Dept. clears $2.5 billion sale of Patriot missile defense system to Bahrain

[Clutch]

Bahrain can sell oil, you can't. Very sorry for you.

Today, yes. Tomorrow, no. Not a sustainable model.

What a waste of money. The system doesn't work. It is all hype and no substance. It's like shooting down a bullet with another bullet.

supposedly aimed at Iran? Bahrain will be wiped out in minutes if it threatens Iranian security regardless of these handful of systems.

they are a bribe that only hurts Bahraini security as they went from a insignifact little saudi occupied island that Iran probably would have ignored incase of war. but now Bahrain made itself a target as well..

before the americans at least had a little shame about creating and exporting weapons and conflict all over the earth in the name of American jobs (or the billionaire stockholders and CEO's ). Now that shame is even gone and they openly brag about it. how morally bankrupt can a country get?
